Eduardo Antonanzas was arrested in connection with the 2008 attack, and police also are looking for a man named Pasqualino Andriano.

Investigators said the men were drinking beer with the alleged victim one night when they suddenly ripped the woman's clothes off and raped her for more than an hour, Hait reported.

Not long after the alleged assault, police found evidence linking Antonanzas to the crime, but the victim disappeared so officers weren't able to press charges.

Then, last month, DNA evidence linked Andriano to the crime, officials said. When they brought him in for questioning on Monday, Andriano said his sex with the woman was consentual, adding that Antonanzas was the one who raped the woman, Hait reported.

Officers had to let Andriano go, and after they did, they tracked down the alleged victim, who said Andriano's story wasn't true.
